The 4-bolt flange Y-bearing insert unit is an assembled set that combines a cast iron housing with an insert ball bearing, already aligned and lubricated from the factory. It is mounted on sheet metal or structure with four bolts and supports rotating shafts in equipment where rigid fastening and easy replacement are required. The DODGE GT series covers light and medium transmission applications in plants and workshops.
The designation of these housings is read in blocks. The initial letters indicate the type of housing: F corresponds to the 4-bolt flange, and the number that follows defines the size or the number of mounting holes. Then comes the series, GT or GTM, which groups the shaft diameter and the type of insert. The final three-digit section identifies the shaft size: that is why part numbers with three digits are the same housing format with different diameters. With that part number you order the exact replacement.
These housings are used in belt and roller conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, blowers, packaging belts and process lines. In Argentina they appear a lot in food plants, meatpacking plants, mills, quarries and aggregate processing facilities, where the environment has dust, humidity or frequent washing. The 4-bolt flange allows the unit to be fastened on a flat face and removed without completely disassembling the shaft, something that is valued in maintenance when a unit has to be replaced in a short time.
To choose well you have to look at the diameter and the type of insert fastening: there are ones with a set screw, with an eccentric ring or with a collar, and each one accepts a different level of load and misalignment. Also check the sealing, because units with a contact seal or labyrinth last longer in environments with water or particles. During mounting, rest the flange on a clean, flat surface, tighten the four bolts in a cross pattern and check that the shaft turns freely. Lubricate according to the working regime and check the alignment so as not to load the insert.
DODGE is a brand that MR Accesorios Industriales sells, and its insert housings cross-reference with equivalent lines from other manufacturers: the same shaft diameter, the same distance between holes and the same type of fastening are usually interchangeable between brands. The key is to compare the complete part number and the housing dimensions, not just the diameter. If the equipment comes with another brand, the compatible unit can be found while keeping the mounting arrangement and the type of sealing.
If you have the housing part number at hand, send it on WhatsApp to MR Accesorios Industriales along with a photo of the housing and the shaft size. With that we will quote the unit and, if necessary, tell you the compatible alternative from the GT or GTM series. We can also review the complete equipment assembly so that the replacement fits without modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the abbreviation GTM mean in these DODGE housings?
- GTM identifies one of the series of housings with insert bearing within the flange housing line. The final number of the part number defines the shaft diameter. To know which size corresponds to your equipment, send us the complete part number and the shaft size on WhatsApp.
- Can a housing from another brand be replaced with a DODGE GT series one?
- In many cases yes, as long as the shaft diameter, the distance between flange holes and the type of insert fastening match. It is not enough for the diameter to be the same. Send us the housing dimensions and we will tell you the compatible alternative.
- How is a 4-bolt flange housing mounted?
- The flange is rested on a clean, flat surface, the shaft is centered and the four bolts are tightened in a cross pattern so as not to deform the housing. Then the shaft is checked to turn freely and the insert is lubricated according to the working regime. Correct alignment extends the life of the bearing.
